Had a recipe similar to this that I was crazy about but lost it. Thanks a million!

Sounds like it would be a 'light enough background' to let the crab meat shine through -- I think I'll copy it down and try it!

Do you let the broth simmer down and thicken a tad?


The broth is going to be nice and runny.


Oh honey, this sounds so yummy. I have got to try this and I will - bet on it. Thanks for sharing.


5 forks from me on this one!
